Well, nothing but agreement here.

Most people don't actually value money - they value the feeling of security it brings them. Just like I value the feeling of security that spirituality brings me.
Just as I struggle at times to not look down on people or lapse into thinking that I'm just a smidge better than they are, when they do nothing but run around building up a treasure on earth - not because they have money, but because I decided, in my apparent omniscience, that they do not value things of true worth....they probably struggle not to look down on me because I've got these pie in the sky fairy tale thoughts about life, the universe, and everything.
I don't think it's about the money.
